Rating 4.0

Just yesterday, drove all the way to Madtracks Auto Center to get some GT Radial tires installed on our pickup. The sales team was pretty accommodating and the mechanics were very kind. We used Giti and GT Radial before when we were in Indonesia, so we're confident with the brand and were pleasantly surprised on how cheap they are compared to the competition. If you're on a budget but don't want to compromise, I'd definitely recommend the brand.

Pros: cheap compared to competition

Shinko Tires

I put on Shinko Ravens and they are more confidence inspiring than the Michelin Pilot 3s I was using.

Pros: confidence inspiring

Shinko Tires

Might I suggest some Shinko’s. I got 16k out of the back tire I got for my Goldwing, 12k+ of those were overloaded doing 80-90 across the country and through the Rockies.

Pros: high mileage, impressed
Cons: overloaded
Mileage: 16000 km

GT Radial Tires

GT Radial tires are manufactured by Giti Tire, a Singapore-based tire manufacturer with nine facilities worldwide. Ironman tires are a budget sub-brand of Hercules Tires, which is in partnership with Cooper Tires, and manufactures its tires in different countries.

Realistically they are probably close to equivalent to each other, but both are low end budget tire brands. They seem to fair well on dry pavement and do marginally well in wet conditions, but are noticeably lacking in snow and winter conditions.

Pros: fair well on dry pavement
Cons: lacking in snow, winter
